For materials, it is pretty easy: Roughly $15 per sqm for cloth, ditto for epoxy (half as much for Ve, 1/4 as much for poly), and 50-100 for foam. This is fairly true for 40-60'. As the hulls get bigger, they gain torsional and bending strength, so the laminate doesn't change much, but the overall areas and the size of the panels do.
Easy enough to get the space of a cat, but you also get the performance and the materials cost. You can either squash this into a 40'ter, or spread it out in a 60. On Tue, Aug 18, 2015 at 5:29 PM, robriley@rocketmail.com [harryproa] <harryproa@yahoogroups.com.au> wrote:
is there a quick and dirty guide A$ per sq M Rob?
ww 30ft/lw 40ft seems about as cheap as a boat can be organised
but for a cruising design its going to need a deck saloon to come close to the volume of a cat. Is that really practical in these sizes?
